just read it...

I hope people realize the importance of this discovery.

Very interesting, thanks for the link.

Gotta love SBC with their 6Mbps tier for 45$
(Yes, on their site it only shows 3Mbps, but it is actually 6Mbps, I would know :)).

So, like... Say I shot Celtic in the face... Would the hole in his face be repaired rapidly, and he wouldnt die?  NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

*edit*
Oh wait, right... Plasma... plasma balls only exist at hot temperatures...  We should let them experiment on celtic with plasma balls  :twisted:

YEah!  The sun is a living organism too! ! !


Ok, the same tests have been carried out when mixing certain chemicals with quicksilver.  (forget the chemicals)  The quicksilver forms individual spheres, the sphere split apart, they also join, and based on one spheres vibration they cause other spheres to vibrate, split, or shrink.  The spheres that lose their input energy chemicals then stop vibrating and reform into a solid quicksilver mass once again.

As for the sun comment; his terms of rationalising his theory can be put to this use as well.  The sun is undergoing a fission-fusion process induced by gasses interracting to form atoms and then divide atoms, and cause atoms nearby those atoms to heat, vibrate, slpit and fuse as well.  THe sun us constantly enlarging and shrinking as the inner layers of gas interract with the outer layers of gas to produce the effects of atom fusion, fission (growing and shrinking) and nearby atom vibration and reaction.

It's a neato experiment they did in that article, as it's got to be a trip to watch happen, just as it is to watch quicksilver react with chemicals, though it doesn't mean plasma-gaseous beings (like our Sun) are living.  If that were the case, one could classify a nuclear reactor's reaction's as a living group of cells bent on destroying nearby matter in an effort to gobble them up as fuel.

...one could go so far as to say that fire is a living thing based on this theory... but I am going to cut it short. :-)

Adios!

//still very interesting though.

errrrr theres a very large difference between the sun and these plasma blobs..

for one theres not a chance in hell that actual biological life could form inside the sun 0_O

the point of the article wasn't to say the actual blobs of plasma were alive... just a another theory on how life could have started on earth.. or any other planet for that matter "Without inherited material they cannot be described as alive, but the researchers believe these curious spheres may offer a radical new explanation for how life began."

as far as the mercury experiment goes... it's totally different ... the experiment in the article was about reproducing the enviromental conditions on the earth ... not having a lil fun with mercury by adding some chemicals and watching them form into 3 dimensional shapes(which would be cool to see i guess)

maybe im just seeing your example all wrong 0_O

Your seeing his example all wrong =x

He was just commenting on how the sun shrinks and expands due to the layers interacting with eachother and how the latter theory connects to it in many ways.

At any rate, it is a very interesting theory!

What I find the most compelling is this line:

Quote from: "http://news.softnews.ro/news/2/2003/September/4860.shtml"
Finally, they could communicate information by emitting electromagnetic energy, making the atoms within other spheres vibrate at a particular frequency.


I doubt stars are on the same frequency.

They need to specify what kind of plasma is being used.  The human body already has something we identify as plasma (you go to a blood bank, they extract the plasma, and put the blood back in your body.)  So what type of plasma are they talking about?

You get a lot of money for donating plasma.

No, it's not the biological plasma.

the truth about plasma "blobs"....  Plasma by itself emittes an electromagnetic field in which the outside of the "blob" is positive and the inside is negative.  It is these forces that hold many of them together and vibrating, several "blobs" acting upon 1 makes it vibrate.  the "blobs" aren't actually communicating but rather, following the already set laws of science.

Why donate plasma when donating sperm is so much more profitable and fun!

Isn't that how are cells are set up, the impermeable membrane, with a positive and negative side? Either that or water...Probably water, anyone know for sure?

Nice article.

Once again, from Evil:

the water molecular isn't set up as positive outside, negative inside.  the water molecular is polar, meaning that 1 end of the molecule is positive and the other end is negative, there is no inner and outer charges.
